I love this Art Nouveau style peacock stained glass window on Fitzroy Place in Glasgow. The door handle is pretty special, too.

Love these door handles on a townhouse on Saint Vincent Street in central Glasgow. The house itself was build in the 1820s, but I think these are Art Nouveau in style and date from refurbishments in the 1890s.

Despite this, it took several more decades for me to notice this beautifully sculpted and amazingly apt door pull on the entrance to this building!

The university's Zoology building, designed by the great J.J. Burnet and constructed in the 1920s, is now named after him, and it happens to be where I spent my formative academic years.

Have you ever noticed how beautiful the door handles are in our main building & the Arlosh Dining Hall? Gorgeous. Both are examples of the original handles in place when the buildings opened (1893).❤️

I love the inscription around this old door bell on a rather grand townhouse in the West End of Glasgow.

Love this ornate hinge on the Gothic style Partick East Free Church (now Dowanvale Free Church) in the west of Glasgow. Designed by Alexander Petrie, it was built in 1880.

This is a beautiful little detail on the door of Glasgow University's Graham Kerr Building. Designed by J.J.Burnet and built in the 1920s, it was originally constructed as the Zoology Building.

A beautiful Art Deco style door handle on a Modern Classical commercial building on Saint Vincent Street in Glasgow City Centre. Constructed in 1931, it was designed by Frank Burnet and Boston.

Love this little detail on the gates to the St Nicholas gardens on Castle Street in Glasgow. It's one of the four symbols from the Glasgow coat of arms which have been incorporated into the design.

Love this beautifully sinuous animalistic brass door pull on a Victorian townhouse in the west end of Glasgow. I've no idea if it's original or not, but it looks like it's been there for some time.

I spotted this old door bell on a Victorian townhouse just of Byres Road today. These bells usually came in pairs, one for tradesmen and delivery people to call the Servants, and another one marked Visitors for those coming to see the owner

Main door to the former Printing Works on Darnley Street in Pollokshields, Glasgow. Designed by D.B. Dobson and built in 1902, the snake-headed hinges at the bottom of the door are a particularly nice touch.

I've always presumed the Servants option was to be used to get the attenton of the servants of the house (for deliveries etc) rather being for servants to ring.

Love this door handle on the former Barony Church on Rottenrow in central Glasgow. The building dates from the 1880s and was designed by Burnet Son and Campbell.

In this case, the Visitors bell is missing, but the Servants one is still there.

Love these door pulls on the 1890s former Sun Life Building on West George Street in Glasgow, especially the little putti clinging on to them!

Love the shape of this door handle, as well as the patina and wear on it. It's on one of John James Burnet's grand late Victorian townhouses on University Gardens in the West End of Glasgow.
